Hey there


Welcome to AF :)

Well according to me there's a way to relock ,

You'll need to use fastboot, which is provided in the CF-Auto-Root zip file, and also available standalone and packaged with lots of other software. It's part of the Android SDK Tools / Platform Tools, which can be installed on Windows, OSX, or Linux.

Note: If you've installed a custom ROM or kernel on top of rooting, you'll want to flash the necessary stock versions with fastboot or possibly through TWRP/ClockWorkMod Recovery.

In order to re-lock the bootloader:

Reboot your phone to Bootloader ModeConnect the USB Cable to your computer.Open a Command Prompt (Terminal on Linux or OSX)Navigate to the platform-tools directory inside the unzipped CF-Auto-Root directory.

Use the following command, depending on your OS.

Linux: ./fastboot-linux oem lockOSX: ./fastboot-mac oem lock
Windows:
fastboot-windows.exe
"oem lock"

One thing to note here : once bootloader is unlocked ,it can be easily unlocked back by typing the command : " oem unlock-go"

But still after relock, your warranty remains void :)

Thanks

Would you possibly know if i need to file a claim on it bc of cracked screen will assurant deni my claim? I have tmobile jump on demand n pay for the protection plan.
 
Its not a.warranty claim. I thought there was a difference in warranty claim and a device protection claim where i pay the deductible and get a refurbished one.

This thread here by LG explains everything about of unlocked bootloader ,even according to them there is not turning back ( means bootloader cannot be relocked )

Yeah so the answer is No ,sorry for the above answer ,but yeah it does lock the bootloader but it's just a virtual lock( not really locked like it was earlier )
 
My phone works fine it just has a cracked screen and in order to.upgrade it has to be fixed so they said i need.to file a claim pay the deductible and then i cant give it back and.upgrade
